The Pumpkin Patches (yes plural)

I feel like we've been gearing up for Halloween for so long that I can't believe it's actually Monday. Guess we need to carve our pumpkins this weekend. We've visited no less than two pumpkin patches this year with friends and the girls got to pet goats at both places. Here we are at Underwood Family Farms doing it up - pig races, petting zoo, pony rides, corn maze, hay ride, and a cow barrel ride. The weather was gorgeous this time as it's usually swelteringly hot out in the Valley. Addie loved everything as did Eliza (minus the pony ride which had her in tears). Check out more photos of our day on the Farm here.

Then the next weekend we went closer to home to Mr Bones Pumpkin Patch in West Hollywood. I guess there are usually celebrities there (we apparently missed Christina Aquilera by a day) so they have a corral for paparazzi cordoned off with hay bales. I wish I had a photo of the paparazzi time-out zone. Hilarious. The girls LOVED holding the chickens and we had to do a reprise of the awesome face painting from two years ago. If the first photo was the girls' debut album cover, this is their sophomore release. Check out more photos from Mr Bones here.

Eliza cuddling the hen is probably the cutest thing ever!

A wonderful time for every one, and I remember your comment that your very urban daughters have brushed more goats than the mainstream child average. Obviously they love it!
